Before we bring in some greenery to the Taiko no Tatsujin arcade scene, we will have to make through the harsh winter climate coming December 19 to Japanese cabinets. (what Asia)
But first, licensed default picks available on the day of the update:
| Title |  |  |  |  |  | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Glass o Ware! NEW! ガラスを割れ！ | ★? | ★? | ★? | ★? | |
| Inochi Mijikashi Koise Yo Otome NEW! 命短し恋せよ乙女／MOSHIMO | ★? | ★? | ★? | ★? | |
 | Over "Quartzer" Kamen Rider Zi-O NEW! 「仮面ライダージオウ」より | ★? | ★? | ★? | ★? |
The latest Kamen Rider inclusion will also be used for an upcoming collaboration with the anime, featuring the usual schtick that playing the song on a Banapassport nets you the collab outfit. Taiko Team cannot share the outfit image for now, but they say it will be somewhat different from previous ones. ...okay?
Now for the main event of the Blue ver. Winter Rewards Shop (ブルーVer.冬ごほうびショップ), switching in four new songs to the arcade:
| Title | | | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Comona Arcade debut [1300] 「ACE COMBAT 04」より | ★3 | ★5 | ★7 | ★9 | |
 | Pan vs Gohan! Dai-kessen! NEW! [1500] Yuuya Kobayashi (IOSYS) feat. miko & Momiji Yamamoto パン vs ごはん！大決戦！ コバヤシユウヤ(IOSYS) feat. miko & 山本椛 | ★5 | ★7 | ★7 | ★10 | ★10 |
| Colorful Shogo/Shougo Nomura NEW! [1500] カラフル／しょご/野村渉悟 | ★4 | ★7 | ★8 | ★10 | |
| λ7708 NEW! [1500] Taiji | ★5 | ★7 | ★8 | ★10 |
Consider this an official reminder that the Blue ver. Autumn Rewards Shop will be ending with this update, and all your remaining Don Medals will once again be reset. If you want those four songs for keeps, do act quick or you will have to spend Katsu Medals from the Donder Hiroba instead.
Meanwhile, in case for some reason you haven't keep up with our other posts on this blog, Taiko no Tatsujin are in the heat of a collaboration with the mobile game #C.O.M.P.A.S.S., featuring these two character songs newly added to Blue ver.:
| Title | | | | | | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | Dance Robot Dance NayutalieN feat. Hatsune Miku/#C.O.M.P.A.S.S. ダンスロボットダンス／ナユタン星人 feat.初音ミク 「戦闘摂理解析システム#コンパス」より | ★3 | ★4 | ★4 | ★9 | |

The new development for this is that Taiko no Tatsujin Blue ver. cabinets (together with Synchronica and Groove Coaster) are coming in exhibition at the #C.O.M.P.A.S.S. Fest 2nd Anniversary (#コンパスフェス 2nd ANNIVERSARY) event on December 23 featuring the above two songs for free trial play.

...wait what is that on the Suggested Videos list? Why does it also have the December 19 date and the ominous "this song is available to unlock through gameplay" text?
